Speaking on the Jim Bakker Show last month, she told the host that Trump had been anointed by God.

‘Because God says that he raises up and places all people in places of authority, it is God who raises up a king. It is God that sets one down,’ she said on the show.

‘Do I believe God raises up authority? Do I believe he sets one up and puts one down?’ she said. ‘I don’t believe that just for Trump, I believe that had Hillary [Clinton] been in. I believe that for [Barack] Obama.

‘If I believe authority is raised by God — I understand I don’t understand all things. And what those purposes are. He’s a sovereign God.’
